“Amazingly,when I began to accept and love myself unconditionally, everything else in my life began to change as well.” ~Sarah Mariah

I have met beautiful, intelligent and independent women who become fearful, insecure creatures once they start dating a man. They text incessantly, ask jealous questions, become bitter towards their man’s varied activities. I ask myself, “What happened to Miss Independent?”

Being independent doesn’t just mean you can be OK when you are all by yourself. It also means that you can act like a strong individual when you are in a relationship. Would you like if some man treated you with the above disrespect? Never trusted you? Always questioned you and harassed you? Probably not. Channel the feisty, fierce woman you were before and don’t let the anxiety of a relationship distract you from what is most important: Being true to yourself.
